Skywatch Friday – Early September Edition

swf 9/11/25

From our vacation to the Gulf Coast of Alabama earlier this year. This is an inland scene in a bay near Orange Beach. We had a great time and I took lots of photos.

This book themed sculpture is outside one of our local Tulsa libraries. I love all things books.

And an action cam photo from one of my bike rides here in town. I love this old natural gas powered electric generating station. The sign on top is neon and looks great from the other side of the Arkansas River. The camera mounts on my handlebars and takes a photo every three seconds. I don’t keep all of them. Typically I have about 1500 photos of which ten to twenty are ones I want to keep. I can do the winnowing quickly, typically in about ten to 15 minutes.

Shadow Shot Sunday – Downtown Tulsa Shadows

Autumn is here and some of the trees are changing colors. We are several weeks behind friends in Colorado and elsewhere higher and further north.

There is still lots of green. I love this ramada at Guthrie Green just north of downtown. Nice and shady in the summer and sunny in the winter when all the leaves fall off.

Our downtown Library is reopening after a three year renovation. I’ll be going there later today to check it out. Solar heating, rainwater collection systems, revamped heating and air,  a 3D printer, enhanced technology. I haven’t heard anything about books. Do libraries still have books? You can depend on me to let you know.

I’m linking with Shadow Shot Sunday (even though it is Saturday). Sunday will be here soon enough.
